Message: [QUOTE="Bowman26, post: 2242017, member: 103465"] I always considered slow rolling to mean being really slow to turn over your cards when you have the nuts. But this is with live play. I don't see how you can slow roll in this fashion online. Sure you can wait knowing you have the dead nuts if you want before calling a all in etc but I think that just makes you look like a fool that didn't even know he had the dead nuts and had to think about it first. Funny I actually had someone accuse me so "slow rolling" Aces in a MTT. He raised 4x the BB in front of me and I had a nice stack but still had several people behind to act yet and one was about the same size stack as me and another was bigger. So instead of jamming and potentially losing all my chips getting my Aces cracked I tripled his bet with my raise hoping it was enough to get me heads up with the original raiser, which it did and when the action came back around to him he called and checked the flop and I bet 1/2 the pot and he folds. I decided to show him my AA and he says nice slow roll. He said me taking a moment to make my bet with Aces was slow rolling. For the life of me I couldn't get him to understand AA isn't a guaranteed winning hand come the river and with several people still to act with large stacks I had to decide whether to raise or jam at that moment. He just couldn't grasp the concept that I didn't want to put my entire stack at risk with AA preflop. I will do that at times but not this deep in a tourney with as many chips as I had. I don't because idiots like this guy that probably raised with 89o just might think he is getting odds and call only to hit his miracle. So all of you that have come here and said people don't know what slow rolling is I have noticed none of you has explained it for us either. So what is your idea of slow rolling? [/QUOTE]
